Navy beat a vastly more talented ND team

The more relevant question would be: Would you rather be us or Notre Dame right now?
Notre Dame for sure. I'm not worried about Notre Dame's long term success. The team and staff is a dumpster fire now but they'll be able and willing to plug in another successful coach. That is something we have refused to do and after 15 years the damage has been done.

Record last 15 years including 2016: Notre Dame: 114-72

Nebraska 123-69

Not sure their coaching decisions have been any better than ours.

 
Brian Kelly should thank his lucky stars he has a job at the end of this year. Kiser is legit, but that D couldn't stop random members of Huskerboard from putting up 28 points.

 
nice...the old transitive game?
Not transitive at all.
The point is, NU will not be as consistently talented across the board as the top 10 to 15 most talented rosters.

So, how do we stay consistently more successful than the other similarly talented programs while also taking a bite out of top 10 talented programs too?

In my opinion, we look at schools like Navy and Briles' Baylor (and Nebraska from the 80s and 90s) and think about modeling our system after theirs. Be hard nosed, be mobile at the QB spot, minimize opponent possessions when necessary, etc.

Hey look, another talent debate. Where the recruiting rankings are either made up gibberish or the gospel depending on what angle you are currently arguing, and the on field results are always the staffs fault.

 
There is no debate: NU is talented. Very talented.

Ask yourself this: if the coaching staffs traded teams, which would win? Before saying Riley's, consider what Langs would do with Barnett.

If Scott frost was running this roster, we'd have the best offense in the conference. We have so much potential being wasted right now.
